Action Plan 2026

This action plan outlines the steps the AFNOR Group will take in 2026 to make its digital services more accessible. It is part of the 2025–2027 multi-year plan and details upcoming initiatives, their progress, and the priorities established to ensure equitable access for all users.

Each year, the multi-year digital accessibility plan is translated into an action plan that details the initiatives scheduled and implemented for the current year, as well as the status of these initiatives.
